Cron Jobs/ Rsync / S.M.A.R.T Missing

[Cwittofur]

Hello everyone, I've been looking through all of my configuration settings to make sure everything is perfect (and it is). I'm missing the Cron Jobs, Rsync and SMART options under the System portion of the GUI. I've looked through the forums and have not found anything related to this so I'm wondering if I missed something or if the version I have just doesn't support it.

FreeNAS Version 8.2-RELEASE-p1

Any help is greatly appreciated!

Take Care,

Cwittofur

Hi Cwittofur,

Please read sections 1.4 to 1.7 of the FreeNAS 8 documentation.

cron and rsync are in 8.01R2 BETA, Smart is not in the UI yet.

It is in trunk and upcoming BETA3

It is in trunk and upcoming BETA3

But that's just scheduling of smart tests, right? There's no way to view the SMART values on a disk as far as I can tell.

Ah thank you! RTFM I know :) I figured it would have been in their respective sections. Thanks again :)

Unless I am not reading the right sections in the docs I am missing something.
It states and depicts all of these options in that release and yet I have none of them, nor can i figure out how to get them.
I am running 8.0.2 and I really must be missing something. I've googled myself to death on this one too.
Anyone have any suggestions....

For example?

if you can review my screenshot, it shows my version and the lack of cron/smart/rsync.

I've tried to downgrade my GUI release to 8.0.1RC2
I've updated to the current GUI release 8.0.2

either way, no way to access the cron from the gui or smart, or rsync.

im baffled, perhaps im faced with a full re-install?
I've searched the forums here and found a good post that points to sectios 1.4-1.7 in the docs but there's nothing in that about enable/disable of these features, theres nothing in those sections about it NOT being included in the 8.0.2 release. In fact, they clearly stated that those features ARE included but I really must be missing something.

 

[Durkatlon]

OK, I think I saw it (the screenshot was unreadable but I compared my own 8.0.2 menu tree and there do appear to be items missing under the System node. That's very odd. Have you tried a different stick with a fresh install (non-GUI upgrade) of 8.0.2?

 

[arls544]

well, im thinking fresh install, but I dont want to lose my array. If i do a clean install will my array hold and if I backup my config and restore it does everything come back after a re-install?

 

[Durkatlon]

If you do it on a separate stick you can always go back to your current broken installation. USB sticks are cheap! That said, it should (should!) be safe to backup your configuration, reinstall from scratch, load configuration. I would back up all the data before doing something (anything) to the NAS, but that's just me. I'm paranoid.
